Kanye is devastated by Virgil's death because they have been friends for years and have worked together a lot. They had a similar vision, and now Kanye feels obliged to continue his friend's work at Louis Vuitton, a source told The Sun.
Kanye West and Virgil Abloh have collaborated extensively in the fashion industry, creating super successful clothing lines. Abloh even held a senior position at West's creative agency DONDA.
